Pixel 9 pro xl was not able to receive data from light and proximity sensor. This app helped me in fixing the issue without rooting my phone.
★★☆☆☆Josef M· Dec 11, 2025
I explicitly enabled the screen rotation lock on my phone, but the developers of this APP decided to bypass my settings and ignore my will, actually making the program impossible to use. I find inconceivable that the developers an APP, explicitly designed to address problems with some sensors, managed to mess with another sensor in this way! I don't know what it can or cannot do, because the image changing orientation on its own every even slight movement was so frustrating that I closed it.
